My family had the best time at this awesome house!!

Beautifully decorated home with a refreshing pool. Had plenty of room for all 7 of us. There’s ac in each bedroom which we were very grateful for. They also had beach chairs umbrellas and towels so we didn’t have to buy anything. Can’t beat the location short walk to the beach and to town. We will definitely be staying at casa mar del sur again. Highly recommend. Muy Bueno!

Multiple levels of pure bliss

This place is fantastic. My wife, baby and I we're fortunate to spend a week here. The baby learned how to swim in the pool and we had beautiful morning beach walks on the secluded section north of town. The surf spot just out front had fun waves all week.

The home is perfect. Beautiful furniture and decore. Landscaping is going to inspire my yard at home in California. Comfortable beds. Lots of activities and zones to hang in and around the pad.

Perfect location. Beautiful house. Magical place.

We stayed here during our destination wedding weekend. The place was wonderful, with lots of character, and a perfect location. We stayed in Casa Luna, and hosted some friends who were in our wedding party in Casa Mar. It was wonderful to have them all together to share this wonderful event with us, yet have some privacy as well. The pictures of me and my bridesmaids getting ready couldn't have come out better. With so many beautiful details throughout the house, it was a challenge to select a spot to take these! Can hardly wait to go back, as we now associate this place with our wedding, and one of the best times of our lives.

Fabulous vacation villa!

We had an absolutely fantastic week at Casa Mar! It has been one of our best family vacations, hands down! The location was perfect-- it is very close to the downtown area, so we easily walked everywhere without having to rent a golf cart. It is only about 1 block to the beach, so the walk is less than a minute! The house has plenty of beach chairs (>5), boogie boards, and umbrellas that we were able to take with us. The house itself was very clean and stylish with a friendly staff. A cleaning crew came about every other day. Danny was our main contact and was beyond helpful! She gave us her cell phone number and helped us plan activities (paddle boarding, snorkeling, yoga, massages, etc.). She also helped us arrange transportation to and from the airport, which made our travels carefree. All in all, Casa Mar is a true bargain. There are certainly "fancier" beach front homes in Sayulita, but it's hard to beat the price and location of Casa Mar! Our stay here was phenomenal! If you're already considering this place, you should go for it!

Beautiful with lots of space!

We rented both sides of the house which was perfect for our family with adult children. The very top palapa was probably our favorite gathering spot! The house is comfortable with 2 well stocked kitchens, gathering areas including a nice pool and backyard area. The location is easy to walk into town. As noted in the description, an easy walk to the quiet end of the beach.

Perfect spot for large group in Sayulita!

Casa Mar del Sur really surpassed our expectations...the pictures just do it a little bit of justice :) The pool area is perfect, the two kitchens are well stocked (appliance and tools wise) and a pleasure to cook in, the bedrooms are comfortable and the bathrooms are a work of art. No detail is overlooked in the house. Sheryl, the property manager, was wonderfully nice and very informative regarding the amenities and rules of the house as well as what to do in town. I would highly recommend a stay in this amazing home. The only issue we had was the shower in Casa Luna never had hot water (the other showers were fine), but because the weather was so warm it was not a problem for us. Lol. Thanks again to Ellen, Phil and Sheryl for their hospitality and responsiveness. Hasta pronto! xo

Thank you so much AR, happy your group loved Casa Mar and Casa Luna (Casa Mar del Sur.) I apologize about the Luna shower and your inability to have a wonderful hot shower. Sayulita's population is ever growing and the more casas, condos and apartments that are built and rented or lived in stretches the infrastructure and the less water pressure we all have. We are working on it!! I believe that now Sayulita is a Pueblo Magico funds for infrastructure will be available. The best way is to take showers with good pressure (HOT) is to take them at different times rather than using all showers at once.
